I just bought my Ram 2500 with the new Cummins HO engine. This engine rocks. Has plenty of power and for a diesel is very quiet. My CR-V has more noise in the cabin than this truck. The interior is much nicer than the trucks of old. In fact, the interior is nicer than my 2002 CR-V. Handling is very good. The truck drives like a much smaller vehicle. Buy one, you won't regret it.
